    And there funding a Youth Set Up ( which will be circa £150K ) 

    And they didn't get £500K from America 

    The purpose of the exercise is not to go bust & perform on the Park - Morton seem to be doing that without external Funding 

    Morton's plan laid out here - no tranches mentioned but external funding gets a run out.

    I cancelled it some time ago as I was unhappy that TJF had simply become an extension of the Board and did there bidding no matter what 

    Fair play then. My question would be how do you expect to get change at Partick Thistle then as the holder of a tiny percentage of shares if not within the group that holds the majority of shares?

    If there are major stadium issues that require significant financial input -and the Board were aware of them at the AGM - why were they not stated ? Why were they missing from any presentations ? Why was the only response on Stadium Requirements to a Question from Maggie Forsyth ? if there are Stadium Requirements over a 3-5 Year Period you build them into your Budget - you don't exclude them to make your figures look better ?

    if thats the case then the Budgets being presented were not a true reflection on financial performance ? 

    So if thats the case then we have serious issues regards what was presented at the AGM regards budgeting 

    Regards the Toilets - I stated rather than put money tarting up Hospitality -the Money should have been used refurbing the Women's Toilets - I gave a financial breakdown why this was a better investment - it wasn't additional money it was a demonstration that the Board Strategy on Revenue Growth was wrong - and for the Record Hot Water in the Toilets is a Non Starter for lots of reasons -and Im happy to provide a Technical Reason as to why via DM if it assists 

    No I wont join TJF - I already have a say - Im a Shareholder - if we are going to sell off more shares then we have an EGM and involve ALL Shareholders same as we did with Propco not a cosy wee arrangement that has TJF and the Board and its myriad of TJF / Board Directors and former Directors -agreeing things in advance same as the AGM 

    not one decent question from TJF Reps at the AGM not one - why would that be ? 

    So there is no need for Tranche 2 - unless the Stadium requires significant upgrades not advised at the AGM -and if thats the case then its a serious issue -as the Board are supposed to give a full report on the state of the Club financial requirements 

    There is No Capital Investment in the Facilities of Firhill that is going to get a decent Commercial Return - what do you think previous boards were ? idiots ?

    Reality is this - your £300K short on Revenue Streams in normal Revenues - its been the same for the last few Years TJF monies are hiding the true picture and reducing it to £150K losses 

    Another £500k isn't going to address that underlying shortfall - so why is TJF wasting time discussing it ? 

    Or are we to be told we are lucky to have

    “ The German Model” so don't question the Grown Ups ? 
     

    we do not need Tranche 2 

    Better cancel your Direct Debit then.

    Today I joined The Jags Foundation  - whilst I have been Lukewarm to the idea of " Fan Ownership" as a Model -  recent events & the publishing of the Accounts have convinced me  ( along with the Quality of those on TJF Board ) that we can make a go of it as a Fan Run Club 

    I would encourage others to Nail there ( Red Yellow & Black) Colours to the Mast and join The Jags Foundation

    1-1 v Hibs is a good result and I think I am correct in saying they haven't beaten us this season.

    Unfortunately to finish 5th we need to beat Celtic (away) and hope Hibs dont beat Rangers at home.

    Remember that we still have the 10 fixtures after the Celtic game when the league splits.

    Utterly shocking, the team run around like weans chasing a poly bag about in a breeze. The non-existent midfield, watch play like additional referees only taking part when the ball runs over their toes. What is Doolan`s instructions on the pitch?.  Do they work on anything in training or do they just run around the park in preparation for a poly bag blowing across the pitch. We are unbelievably third in this league, which would suggest that a team that is organised, a team who have a game plan, a team who are structured who work on set plays. would walk this league. Step down son 

    Having been brought up to remember the 4th commandment all I will say is I respectfully disagree sir.

  6. Well that was unexpected. Good to be able to come back but clearly not good in the fact that we had tocome back. Will be intersesting to see the highlights. Hope those who travelled have a safe journey home.

    We seem very likely to finish 3rd.  I can't see Raith's poor run or Morton's good run lasting.  Airdrie might come into contention for 4th but they've a lot to do for that.  Even a point a game should get us 4th, and I'm sure we'll do better than that.

    A not unrealistic set of results on Friday and Saturday (Dundee Utd beating Raith and us beating ICT) would see us only 4 points behind Raith with 13 games to go and 2 of them against Raith so plenty still to play for.
